YEAR 12 LESSON TWENTY [21st Feb 13]: Homework.

The whole focus of this session was Act Two of Jez Butterworth's JERUSALEM. Class discussion involved a consideration of:

• The significance of the imagery and poetry offered by the speeches of Johnny Byron. What does the language used by Byron tell us about the nature of his character?
• The significance of the moment with Dawn and Marky.
• The significance of the moment involving Troy Whitworth.
• The significance of the silence used in Act Two.
• The comedic nature of this Act.
• The serious nature of Act.

Students received the coursework titles.

HOMEWORK: Read the final Act of the play and consider which title you will be attempting for coursework. Students should bring their copy of TROTAM to the next session. We will be discussing Coleridge's poem in the next session.
